There's a 200+ page Code of Points[1] that determines how much each skill is worth as well as each error. At the elite level, there's a panel of 9 judges for each event, divided into judges who tally the execution score and the difficulty score, and the reference panel that effectively audits the execution score.[2] The difficulty and execution scores are averaged. This is how you can get three-decimal scores due to averaging. Here is an example of a judge's score sheet.[2]
(Nevertheless, there are still issues with bias, where athletes or teams who benefit from a particular judge's biases might have their errors more gently scored. For example, on the bars, gymnasts are required to hit a handstand position within a 10-degree range of vertical. But a judge who is impacted by a bias, or a certain viewing position, many not notice that a particular handstand was at 15 degrees, and not deduct accordingly. This is where the AI judging may be particularly helpful.)

- Ferret7446 3y agoThis whole affair seems rather silly IMO. For all the hullabaloo about AI killing art, I feel like this kind of fine grained scoring does more damage to art than AI ever will.
